Hamilton Gardens, Hamilton, New Zealand
A little over a week ago we had an assignment in Hamilton, which is about an hour and a half drive south of Auckland. We arrived early for our meeting so we decided to spend a little time in the Hamilton Gardens. It was a dull, cloudy day, not very enticing for photography. But as usual, I hauled around my camera bag, mainly because I never, ever leave my camera equipment in the car, not even in the trunk. Anyway, I took very few photos, but this one I really love. I adjusted it with the 'simplify' filter in Topaz Adjust. This eliminated distracting specks of light and helped bring out the colors and reflection in the water.
